Break up the Flyers!
All of a sudden, the Orange & Black are hotter than Joe Biden.
Last night the red-hot Flyers continued their quest as the best team in town right now with a convincing 5-2 win on the road over the Caps.
That makes seven straight wins and puts them just one point behind Washington for first place in the Metropolitan Division.
But the win did come at a price. James van Riemsdyk took a shot off his hand. X-rays showed a fracture and he's expected to miss some time.
You can see this team's confidence growing with each game, under the steady hand of veteran coach Alain Vigneault.
It was Vigneault's call to start veteran goalie Brian Elliott over hot shot youngster Carter Hart last night. Elliott responded by stopping 25 shots from the Capitals.
Hart will be back in the net tonight when the Flyers look to make it eight in a row against the Hurricanes at the Wells Fargo Center.
